This week, our guests shun simple explanations. Film and media studies professor Jason Mittell reveals why we can actually handle more complexity in our television shows than ever before, despite our shorter attention spans. Planetary scientist Jim Bell predicts the possibility of everyman space travel.

For a fresh take on what you thought you knew, tune into our show on complexity.
